Oh, wow! That looks hella impressive! My text editor which is ALMOST functional (you can view and go up/down, but not edit files yet, text is in buffer), and is like 600 SLOC, where Neatvi is 8000 SLOC... But my editor doesn't have proper UTF-8 support, highlighting, any real advanced functions, right-left support or those things found in kmap.h, DIGRAPHS. OK, I'm kindof lying when I say it has no highlighting, the cursor is highlighted, and if we're talking escape sequences, that part should be easy and like 50SLOC, depending on language and what-not And the developer of Neatvi seems to be much more advanced than myself, in C. I'm definitely giving Neatvi a try, after checking out it's source code thank you, very much! I still think that I'll make my own thing, I already learnt a whole lot, like techinques for managing arrays/buffers by which I mean memory, which can be useful like everywhere I think that ANY project can be beneficial for the skill/experience Like I never worked with hexidecimal or whatever 0x7f is >>> actually checking out the source code mid-email Dude advanced poll(2) code? Fuck yeah! It's a little sad that by default C PL doesn't highlight for (u)int8-64.. but for Go it does that lol.. Also I'm not sure how safe it is when it comes to handling escape sequences, but I bet that the developer thought of that, he seems advanced I also realize that there's a ton of string manipulation, and the program manages command queries and stuff, it could easily somehow have a command that runs something malicious Honestly I don't even know what I'm looking for... I doubt it'd do a `rm -Rf ~/*` lol and for networking access, and perhaps grep for "ssh", what should I look for, mostly #includes(for networking)? I want to find or create a guide for reviewing potentially malicious source code... It also looks like some of security pull requests haven't been approved/issues resolved.. ... speaking of which: >>>ex.c(ex.o:(ec_make)): warning: sprintf() is often misused, please use snprintf() >>>ex.c(ex.o:(ec_set)): warning: strcpy() is almost always misused, please use strlcpy() >>>reg.c(reg.o:(reg_putraw)): warning: strcat() is almost always misused, please use strlcat() The dwchars, zwchars and bchars arrays look very suspicious, could be injected into a command and ran, who knows what it is.. it's obfuscated and I don't like sketchy shit like that ._. Neatvi also uses a switch statement in vi.c for handling input and calling functions, I do the same in my editor, it's the most enjoyable part, because that code of block feels just so powerful and simple hahaha Programming can be an art, poetry even Also no idea if it uses Vi(1) under the hood Damn, it has been a long time since I've seen colors in a text editor! HAHAHAHA I have to get used to it now, glad that you recommended it! It's funny reading Neatvi source code using Neatvi :).. just as I used my own version control system to keep track of my version control system rofl Can't wait to use my text editor to work on my text editor Turing complete, yes?
